Suomalainen pannukakku
by Amy on 17. Mar, 2007 in Food
Finnish pancake that got a little burnt. Since this is the only one I’ve ever had, I can’t comment on whether it was any good. I guess it’s time to pay a visit to the Suomi Bakery, a Finnish breakfast favorite in Houghton. I’ve never been, but I hear the food is good. And they [...]

KBC Sampler
by Amy on 20. Feb, 2007 in Home & Style
Martin was in town so we hit the Keweenaw Brewing Company (KBC to the locals) and The Library Brew Pub. Evidently I do not go out enough, because when I do, I decide to have 3+ beers. Stupid, stupid, stupid! I do recommend the sampler at the KBC, though. For $3 you can sample six [...]

Let there be peace on earth
by Amy on 30. Dec, 2006 in My Every Day
We’ve been shopping nonstop since arriving in St. Paul. Rosedale Mall, downtown St. Paul (I love Grand Avenue), you name it. Tomorrow I take Scott to his first ever professional football game over at the Dome (Vikings are playing the Rams). The other thing we’ve been doing nonstop? Eating. Pat baked for two days straight [...]
